The blog post announcing this says that they releasing it for PS5 initially so I would assume they are planning on growing it after dedicated support on their primary device (this will also be extremely great for their portable system that is built to stream from the PS5).
Limited storage, more ability to test drive a game, I stream a lot of their older games that I can just download, purely because it's nearly instant loading and let's me test them rather quickly — this will be perfect for game trials and demos.
The PlayStation streaming, especially for the older games and PS3 games (since you can't install those locally through the service) are remarkably great. I don't think I've had a single problem like I have had when I tested Stadia or NVIDIAs service (and a few others over the years).

Starting this month, we will begin launching cloud streaming access for supported PS5 digital titles within the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog and Game Trials, as well as supported titles in the PS5 game library that PlayStation Plus Premium members own.
Select PS5 games will be available for streaming, and we’re planning to have hundreds of PS5 titles to support this new benefit. (...) PS5 cloud streaming is exclusively available on the PS5 console at launch.
